Get Your Goat I


















12x12-Oil-These next two sweeties are from photos that I took this spring at Red Dog Farm for their fall fundraiser. This little goat and I butted heads for a few days, but once I painted him the second time, he practically leapt onto the canvas. SOLD December 2007.

Get Your Goat II


















12x12-Oil-This goat was a much more cooperative painting subject than its black counterpart, Get Your Goat I, taking about one third of the time to complete. SOLD December 2007.

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow


30x24-Oil-This commission was a surprise anniversary gift from Sally to her husband, Tom. They are a wonderful couple with the cutest lab, Peepers. I've tried to capture wines from their favorite vineyard...Newton...with the year they married on one label and 2007 on the other. I topped it off with an anniversary Champagne toast. Here's wishing Sally & Tom 34 more happy years! SOLD July 2007.
